6 Practical Books for Beginning Machine Learning

Last Updated on August 16, 2020

There are a lot of good books on machine learning, but most people buy the wrong ones.

A question I get asked the most is what books should people buy to get stared in machine learning. My answer to beginners is: “don’t buy textbooks“.

In this post I want to point out a few key books that are aimed at beginners that you should buy (and read!) if you are just starting out.

I am not reviewing these books, if you want reviews, click a link and read the Amazon reviews. I will list a few reasons why I think each is a good book to pick up and read for a beginner.
